Kadri reunion? Dump JT+ Jack for an elite goalie somehow

Bring Kadri at 5 years 7M

It would end in failure most likely but at least Kadri wasn't as bland as Johnny No Dekes is

"Johnny No Dekes" should be "Johnny Tries to Deke but Turns it Over"
 
The team has necessary parts to win the cup exept for the coach. If he gets fired it will be because he extended Keefe after 2 playoff series he should have won.
C'mon dude. A career AHLer who choked his way out of the NHL for a decade is not the answer in net.
 
I said this before and I was accused by the Dubas Defense Crew of wanting the team to lose.
I thought that I might have to eat crow if the leafs beat Tampa , but in the end, looks like the anti dubis will win this one, we were right all along. I never liked dubas construction of the team, player personnel or contracts from day 1. Aside from a couple of good moves, it’s accompanied with some massive blunders.
 
Where's the spezza fan club?

Apparently, we scratched Wayne Gretzky the first 2 games. He's making a difference alright
 
Because that's how they got to be back to back champs.

it's funny because before this game they were looking kind of sluggish and fed. I thought maybe the Leafs would be so embarrassed after 5 straight 1st round losses that their sheer desperation to break that skid would overcome Tampa.

it's a best of 3 now but the Leafs are going to have to show something in this series if this team wants to stay together.
This team will stay together regardless. Dubas can coast on the "best Leafs regular season ever" and losing to the back to back chanps to justify this mentally weak disaster of a team
 
Quiet game for our stars. I mean it is a weird game... But even at 3-0 there wasnt any push back.

This one might weigh on their minds as we head into game 5.
When there is no protection because your 4th line is marshmallow, and your team is physically reactive and not proactive like when Simmonds and Clifford are in the lineup, your stars will get seven shades of s*** kicked out of them by the Bolts if they dare raise their heads.
 
"Goal scoring against these guys i'm not worried about". Yeah, almost like Cooper knows Leafs quite well..
 
Right. It's not the loss, it's the how for me. Totally unprepared to weather an initial push. Just sends a message to Tampa that if they do push, we have no real answer. So if they bring that in game 5 we be fckd (potentially and based on what we have seen so far in this series.)
I don't know. I still feel like Tampa doesn't scare me. Leafs have shown when they come to play and play the right way they outclassed Tampa.

Game 5 will be an absolutely huge game. Huge.
 
1) No more Holl. Ever.
2) Move Tavares down to the third
3) Take Tavares off PP1
4) Take out Spezza for Simmonds or Clifford so the team starts hitting again
If your team hitting relies on one or two 4th line plugs, you've got a poorly constructed team
 
We need a complete organizational overhaul.

You cannot waste Mathews/Marner/Nylander prime moving forward. Dubas's tactics aint working.

We need someone else to put a team together around our core
